Boston Logan International Airport (BOS) is New England's primary international gateway and the busiest airport in the region. Located in East Boston — just 3 miles from downtown — Logan is accessed via three harbor tunnels: the Ted Williams Tunnel (I-90 extension), the Sumner Tunnel (downtown-to-East-Boston inbound direction), and the Callahan Tunnel (East-Boston-to-downtown outbound direction). The MBTA Silver Line SL1 runs through the Ted Williams Tunnel with dedicated bus lanes and is free from the airport per Massport. The MBTA Blue Line also serves the airport via Airport Station with shuttle bus transfers to terminals. MassDOT and Mass511 operate BOS-area camera coverage.
